Recipe: Easy Pear Salsa

Delicious new flavor combinations don’t have to be difficult or elaborate. This take on a conventional salsa highlights the natural sweetness of roasted salsa veggies with a touch of natural sugar from pears and parsley instead of cilantro. The toasted cumin and black pepper add a satisfying complexity and make this homemade salsa salsa worthy of any you’ll find in a grocery store or restaurant. Since it’s made in a slow cooker, prep time is a fraction of a raw veggie salsa.
